Is the Datejust 41 worth the price?

At $11,395 at WatchGuys as of November 3, 2026, it sits near the low end for a new steel Datejust 41. You pay for the movement, the finishing and Rolex resale strength rather than complications.

How does it compare with the Datejust 36?

The 41 mm case suits larger wrists and reads sportier; the 36 mm is the more classic proportion. Both use the calibre 3235 and offer the same 100 m water resistance.

What is the power reserve?

About 70 hours on a full wind, so it keeps running through a weekend off the wrist. It is self-winding, so normal wear keeps it charged.

Does the fluted bezel scratch?

Yes. The fluted bezel is white gold, which is softer than steel, so it picks up marks with daily wear. The sapphire crystal resists scratches far better.

What comes in the box?

Box and papers plus the green hangtag; the white hangtag is not included. Confirm the warranty card date with the seller before buying.
